The Warriors joined the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls as NBA teams with the most wins in a single season after defeating the San Antonio Spurs 92-86 on Sunday to improve their record to 72-9.

Stephen Curry clutched the game ball after pouring in 37 points in the win, and there’s room for one more victory. The Warriors put themselves in a position to break the record with a win in their regular-season finale Wednesday against the Memphis Grizzlies.

First, the Warriors had to exorcise demons in San Antonio. They notched their first regular-season win in the city in 19 years, snapping the Spurs’ 33-game winning streak against them.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr played on that famed 72-10 Bulls team and said before the game he hadn’t heard from many of his former teammates — Hall of Famers Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen among them — as the record was threatened.

“I’m sure they’re all rooting hard against us,” Kerr said.

Not even the vaunted Spurs could stop the Warriors juggernaut.

The Warriors were held to season lows of 14 first-quarter points and 35 first-half points as they fell behind by as many as nine. Still, the score was tied at halftime as the Warriors’ defense shined.

The Spurs scored the first eight points of the second half, but Curry responded with two straight 3-pointers. Capping off a 12-0 run, Andrew Bogut scored back-to-back baskets gave the Warriors a 49-45 lead.

Curry went up strong and scored over Danny Green for a 3-point play that gave the Warriors a 62-57 lead. They went into the fourth leading by a point.

Curry returned at the 5:47 mark and threw up a one-handed shot that banked in with the shot clock winding down. Curry then stole the ball and passed to Thompson for a transition dunk, and two subsequent Curry free throws made it 84-73.

The Spurs fell to 65-15 and suffered their first home loss of the season after 39 wins.
